To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether her Department has made an assessment of the potential impact of increasing the Public Works Loan Board lending cap on local authority investment strategies.

The government increased the aggregate limit for Public Works Loan Board (PWLB) lending to £135 billion in November 2024.
